Ryan Lochte’s hair is now white

USA swimmer Ryan Lochte’s been known to do some crazy stuff, like rap Vanilla Ice before jumping in the pool, so his Instagram post on Sunday should come as no surprise.

Lochte, perhaps as a tribute to Mr. Ice, dyed his hair white before the Rio Games. It’s pretty wild—how would you react if you were about to dive in the pool for the 200-meter IM, only to see someone next you with freaking white hair. It’s a total intimidation move and one that will surely secure the United States a medal.
